WL'd Y'all!!!! This was a real good ride, I had a hell of a time on this thread

Edit: changed boys to y'all bc y'all means all

 

[JayPea123]

Accepted!!

 

[kyleekyle]

Accepted and mildly hyperventilating!

Next crazy ride: waitlist paranoia 😀

Ya'll: what's the probability of getting in off the waitlist, can someone do the math???

65 acceptances is really high, but how many people are on it?

PS: it sucks because I don't know of I have a chance now or not haha, not sure if they liked me or hated me

I think I'm gonna dip off the WL so whatever that calculation is, +1 to it

yeah tbh i wish they did rejections so that being on the waitlist actually means something

 

[supsupsup]

ACCEPTED!!! Literally shakingggggg

 

[Hartroc]

Yeah. The odds of being accepted off the waitlist are lower than being accepted off the bat. 🙁 But we will survive! Good luck to everyone on the WL, and congrats to everyone who got accepted!

I will most likely withdraw as well. Good luck, everyone.

 

[spontaneous23]

Accepted!!!!!!!!!!! Alma mater I love u

 

[BeingForItself]

Got waitlisted! Not what I was hoping for but at least there's still a chance!

 

[deleted1009711]

Well one good thing is that they accept in waves off the waitlist (I think?), so it's not like we will necessarily have to wait until late May...

 

[RoseHathaway]

Did you get an email? Or only portal?

 

[cbdblmad]

True, in past years I think I remember seeing people get off WL as early as late February/early March

 

[happybday1972]

When they say 65 people were accepted off the waitlist...what about the people that don't accept their acceptance post-waitlist? are those people still included in the 65? or only the people that matriculated from the waitlist?

 

[StormPhoenix]

WL... feeling some type of way. My SO got in, but I didn't. This is in our top 3 choices together. Sigh**

Did you get an email? Or only portal?

Portal only. It will say congrats in status, and your admissions tab will populate with info

 

[md_cheme]

Waitlisted, I guess now is the time to start drafting an update letter. Does anyone have links to relevant posts?

Yep that's what I noticed peeking at the old Pitt SDN threads. Seems to be a lot of action then. Hopefully for us WL people who really want to go to Pitt there's good movement this year!

Omg so this is confirmed? I almost want to call the office to check. I can't believe it I really can't. I filled in the info in "admissions data tab" is that the only I have to do at this point? Or is there anything else?

I'm sorry I realize that I'm rambling

 

[YerAWizardKhalifa]

ACCEPTEDDDDDD! I can finally stop neurotically checking

 

[RoseHathaway]

ACCEPTEDDDDDD! I can finally stop neurotically checking

Are you doing anything more than filling out the "admission data form tab"? Did you get an email? Do you know if there is anything else to do at the moment? Sorry for the rambling. So anxious but in a good way rn!!!!!

 

[Chromium Surfer]

Accepted

God is Good that all I can say. Wow can not believe it.

Congrats to everyone else who was accepted and rooting for everyone who is on the waitlist!!

Thank you man, that means a lot. Congrats to your SO on getting in, and praying that you can join them!

ACCEPTED OMG!!!!!!!!!! THE WAIT WAS SO BAD!! I thought it wouldn’t come out today because no email so I kept off of here for an hour or two!!

Saw all the decisions on here. Checked the portal. Heart was beating so fast. I saw “Pay Fee” and thought it was glitch. Then saw I was getting a financial aid package and freaking jumped!!

I’m so happy and excited. I can’t stop smiling. My parents are so hyped!!

 

[GarlicCat]

Waitlisted as well. Congrats to all accepted. You surely all deserved it.

Congrats! Did you get an email? Do you know if we have to do anything other than fill in the info in the "admissions tab" at this time (before they send financial aid info)?

I didn’t get an email. Idk about the rest tho.

 

[AmericanArthurDent]

WL, at least the initial waiting is over!

 

[BeingForItself]

Now for even more waiting lol

 

[RoseHathaway]

I didn’t get an email. Idk about the rest tho.

So, I can take the portal thing as a real confirmation right? I'm paranoid about getting an acceptance notification by mistake lmao. Calling the office today would be too much right? lol

Take some deep breaths and go celebrate your success. 🙂

Sorry I know I'm really strung up rn. Good luck on the WL though! I hear they take around 65 from the WL, which is no joke

 

[RoseHathaway]

Haha yes! I will 🙂

 

[medschoolplsplspls]

Anyone know when they’ve historically started taking people off the waitlist?

 

[K-K]

WL, oh well

 

[PreMedStudent55555]

Is Pittsburgh going to send an email with the acceptance later? A little surprised I got no email as almost all of my schools have updated the portal and sent an email simultaneously.

Does anyone know how long the financial aid package has taken to be sent in previous years? The portal sends we will get in shortly but how shortly is shortly?

Also on my portal is says not all my financial aid info is in but I already finished and submitted FAFSA months ago? Is there anything else that I’m missing? Like another financial application I need to do?

In last year's Pitt thread, they took a lot of people off in both early March and early April!
